Calliope glanced at Effie and asked in confusion, “Is that true, Effie?”
“It's true, Mom. I'm still a virgin!” Effie replied with her face all red.
“That doesn't make sense, though. I heard your voice from outside earlier. It didn't sound right at all!” Calliope said.
Effie then leaned in close and whispered something into her ear.
Calliope frowned upon hearing that and eyed Jared from head to toe.
“What's wrong, Calliope?” Atlas asked.
Calliope then whispered something into Atlas' ear as well, causing his expression to turn gloomy instantly.
“What should we do?” Calliope asked, feeling a little lost.
Although this man did violate Effie, he only did it to treat her! She's still a virgin, so I can't hold a grudge against him! Even so, I can't just let him walk away like this either! Not only has he seen my precious daughter's naked body completely, but he also...
“You've seen my daughter's naked body, young man. If word were to get out about this, I would become the laughingstock of this town! Given what you've done to her, I will have no choice but to have you marry her. No one will say a word about this if you two are a married couple,” Atlas said hesitantly.
“What are you saying, Dad?” Effie exclaimed with a look of disbelief on her face.
“Mr. Jablonski, I have only met your daughter a while ago. How can I possibly marry her? I don't agree to this!” Jared said, rejecting his request on the spot.
“You have to agree! Otherwise, I will have you killed!” Atlas yelled furiously.
The look in Jared's eyes grew cold as he said, “I won't agree even if I die!”
This is so unreasonable! All I did was help remove the poison from Effie's body! Why should I marry her? If a man has to marry a woman simply because he saw her naked body, then all the male gynecologists in the mundane world will have countless wives! I will never marry Effie! I've promised Josephine that she will be the first woman I marry, so I will not marry any other woman until Josephine and I are married!
“How dare you defy me? Die!” Atlas roared.
